Don't mean to hijack the thread but can you tell me more about the dye method. My water level has gone down about 2-3 feet since closing. This happened before and I refilled upon opening with no abnormal loss during the following season so chalked it up to evaporation (which doesn't tabulate with me given the winter cover is on but...)

Anyways...I'll refill upon opening again but should do a dye test to find any pinhole or large leaks. Can you tell me more about the dye. Does it fade or how do you remove it after the test is concluded. Admins...feel free to repost in a new thread. Thanks.
